Finding a chic makeup style for the active commuter

Posted on April 23, 2013

Even though the fall weather is easing into the fold and milder temperatures are on their way, most commuters are still struggling with the intense heat and humidity of the subway system. The underground stays plenty warm long after summer is over, so fashionistas need to take extra care to ensure that their look isn't in shambles by the time they get to the office.

Try to keep it simple for the office. You're probably scrambling to get out the door in the morning anyway, so putting on a heavy layer of eyeshadow or eyeliner may not be the best choice. A few layers of mascara and a nude foundation could be a fabulous way to stay chic at work.

If you want to be adventurous in the morning, use a bright lip color that can go with your outfit. A good rule of thumb is to use a bold lip color with a neutral outfit that can really stand out, and use a softer shade if you're wearing a vibrant ensemble.

Instead of painting your lashes every morning and worrying about them flaking or running, use blinc Mascara. This product will encase your lashes in tubes for a carefree look that will last all day long.
